Title: Improvements in or relating to the combustion and evaporation of industrial waste liquors
IPC: B01D1/26
Filed: 1952-07-15
Abstract: In a process for the disposal of industrial liquors such as "black liquor" and distillery residues, wherein the liquor is first concentrated in a bulk evaporator and then in a spray evaporator, the concentrated material so obtained being burnt in a furnace, high thermal efficiency is achieved by using the hot gases and vapours from the furnace to effect the vaporization in the spray evaporator, passing the gaseous mixture leaving the spray evaporator into a contact condenser wherein it is contacted with a constantly circulating stream of cooling water, and by using the steam evolved in the condenser for heating the bulk evaporator.  Concentrated <PICT:0719738/III/1> liquor withdrawn from the base of spray evaporator 6 is passed through pipe 23 into furnace 1, and is burnt therein giving rise to gases and vapours at a temperature of about 1500 DEG C.  The gaseous mixture is passed through duct 2 and the heat exchanger of boiler 3, wherein it gives up heat and is cooled to about 450 DEG C. The gaseous mixture is then passed through pipe 5 into spray evaporator 6, wherein it meets a spray of concentrated liquor introduced through duct 7.  The gaseous mixture leaving evaporator 6 through pipe 9 is at a temperature of about 150 DEG C.; it is passed into contact condenser 10, which is maintained at about atmospheric pressure.  In this condenser the gaseous mixture meets a spray of water pumped up from tank 11.  Gases at about 65 DEG C. are exhausted from the condenser by fan 14.  Tank 11 is maintained at a pressure of about 300 mm. Hg., and the steam produced therein is withdrawn through duct 16 and is introduced at about 60 DEG C. into the heating space of tubular evaporator 17, which is maintained at a pressure of about 149 mm.  Weak liquor is fed into evaporator 17 through inlet 18; after it has been slightly concentrated therein, it flows through duct 19 into a second tubular evaporator 20, which is maintained at a pressure of about 92 mm. and heated by vapours at 50 DEG C. evolved from the liquor in evaporator 17.  The preconcentrated liquor leaving evaporator 20 is passed to spray evaporator 6 via pipe 22.  Embodiments are also described wherein two or more contact condensers, disposed either in parallel or in series, are utilized. An atomizing drier, wherein the concentrated, liquor is converted into a powder, may be incorporated in the apparatus at a position between the spray evaporator and the furnace.
